So, this was supposed to be a short one-shot but I got a short but sweet review "I'm hooked" and felt obligated to continue, all you guys who added it to story alert and favourited it the first day I posted it helped too :P thank you the story shall go on.
Everything still belongs to Rowling, not me.
The day hadn't gone quite as bad as the pair had expected, with the exception of Ron, he was absolutely disgusted. Mrs. Weasley was supportive and treated Draco as she treated every other guest in her house, with the utmost hospitality. She too had noticed that Draco had become, if possible, even thinner than before, and busied herself in the kitchen straight away, preparing a delicious feast for her family, this included Harry. Even though he hadn't married into the family like she had always hoped and expected, that didn't change the fact that he was like a son to her, she had been the closest thing he had to a mother growing up, and he had done so much for the family. Mr Weasley had seemed a little uncomfortable at first, but he got over it, he wasn't overly friendly to Draco, as there was no changing the fact that he was Lucius' son, but he was polite and respectful to him as he wasn't actually Lucius.
"Harry, can we talk?" Hermione asked, peering around the corner into the sitting room where Harry and Draco sat cosily by the fire, while Ginny and George played exploding snap on the floor. Ron of course wasn't around, he refused to be in the same room as them if he could help it, after dinner he got up, glared at Harry and simply stated, "I'm going flying," and he hadn't been seen since.
"Of course, take a seat," he said, moving over to give Hermione some room on the couch.
"In private?" she asked. Harry gave Draco a kiss on the cheek and quietly told him that he would be back. There hadn't been as much time for "all that" as Harry had expected, Mrs Weasley had asked them if they would stay awhile, meaning over night, he thinks she just wants a few days to fatten up Draco.
Harry followed Hermione up the stairs to Percey's old room where he would be staying. They flopped down on the bed, fighting over who got the pillow until they decided they could share. They laid there cuddled up for awhile, just like old times. It had never been romantic, though he couldn't say it didn't mean anything. Hermione meant a great deal to Harry, he loved her very much, but as a friend, his best friend in many ways. Sure Ron was known to be Harry's best friend, and he was, but that didn't change that Ron was quite immature, and not all that bright, however loyal he was. He liked how he could talk to Hermione, have intelligent conversations with her, it was much easier to share his feelings with her as well. Yes, men have feelings, and do feel the need to talk about them sometimes, contrary to popular belief. Though it's not as though Harry was all manly either, he was gay, wasn't he. Was he? Harry hadn't really gotten to think about that yet, he had just finally come to the terms with the fact that he had feelings for someone he had hated for the better part of seven years, his worst enemy, he hadn't really gotten the chance to think about the fact that he was a guy. He had dated Cho, and Ginny, he had even loved Ginny, so could he really be considered gay? Or had he been straight but turned gay…
"Harry?" Hermione called out to him, breaking him away from his ponderings, he turned to look at her. His arms were still wrapped around her, her chin resting on his chest looking up at him. "Finally, I only called you're name about five times," she laughed, "what are you thinking about so hard?"
"Oh, never mind, don't worry about it, what did you wanna talk to me about?" he asked, his hand brushing down her hair.
"It's Ron," she said.
"He still being a prat? I'm telling you, he better smarten up soon or I'm gonna knock him one, I don't know why you haven't yet, or better yet, I don't know why you haven't just gone with the obviously better option you have sitting right in front of you, I think he's just waiting for you to realize what a git his brother is before he actually makes a move."
"Yes he is still being a prat, no George does not return my feelings, he is not an option and does not want to "make a move", but that's not what I wanted to talk about. I know why Ron is so angry about you and Draco."
